Well, here we go for another crack at promotion, only this time i feel wolves are much better equipped and with a match thread as good as this one will be......what could possibly go wrong
Wolves 3-0 Boro
Nuno Espirito Santo and Garry Monk have spent heavily during the summer and their new clubs are among the favourites to be promoted.
Wolves have several new signings available for debuts, including £15m midfielder Ruben Neves.
Britt Assombalonga, who joined Boro from Nottingham Forest, is poised for his first outing for the Teessiders.
Jonny Howson, Cyrus Christie and Martin Braithwaite are also set for their first competitive appearances after their summer transfers to Middlesbrough.
Gaston Ramirez is one player who will not be involved, after his move to Sampdoria.
Wolves are without wingers Ivan Cavaleiro (suspension), Kortney Hause (knock) and Helder Costa (ankle), so on-loan Atletico Madrid forward Diogo Jota is set to start as part of a front three.

Just watched the highlights - we were absolute tosh and should have lost by three clear goals.
Numerous cameramen went to the game and recorded the evidence, so their testimony is more valid than those who claim that they went but recorded nothing. This is why you can never trust 'fans' - they are biased and cannot see beyond their rattles and scarves.

A Brazilian freak
And I sure wouldn't swap him for Deeney

Yeah, but we won, and it's early days. Cinci has his views of the game, having read the forums. Nothing wrong with that, as that's all I can do right now. I will definitely be down to watch a few games this year though.

If you could get Bute annexed to the Sudetenland you could watch the games as an ex pat
